Dorchester Hotel.
There are already many reporters squatting at the gate, holding cameras and whispering to each other.
They were well informed enough to find out that the whole Tottenham squad will be holding a celebratory reception here tonight.
Although he didn't win the championship, the owner of the team was still very generous and directly bought the most expensive Michelin three-star hotel in London.
"Look at the new owners of Tottenham, I've heard that in their last game, they paid out five million pounds in prize money alone. ”
'The players who scored the goal each got £500,000 and the rest was split equally between the players and the coaching staff, which is a big deal. “
"I feel that the Premier League will be more lively in the future, the oil tycoons of the Middle East, the oligarchs of Russia are about to welcome powerful opponents. ”
"The players are here, hurry up and get ready. ”
……
Reporters quickly set up long guns and short guns, and flashing lights kept taking pictures of the Tottenham players who arrived one after another.
Tottenham's players all appeared in the cameras with their wives or girlfriends on their faces with smiles on their faces.
Today is the day to receive the bonus, and no one will be unhappy.
Especially the players who scored five goals, everyone's face was happy.
The prize money of 500,000 pounds is enough for them to take their girlfriends to pick the place they want to go to the most and spend a comfortable holiday.
There are basically few poor players who play in the Premier League.
Tottenham's players wore all tailor-made suits, and their female companions wore high-end gowns with a variety of fine jewellery.
The specifications of a celebration reception are no less than those of some movie conferences.
A black apparition drove from the street and stopped in front of the hotel.
Seven or eight bodyguards galloped down from the front and rear cars, standing vigilantly around the phantom.
After Chen Dongcheng got out of the car, he looked at the reporters and didn't pay much attention to it.
In the UK, although these paparazzi are annoying, they also have the value of existence.
The commercial value of the Premier League is so great, and these paparazzi have also contributed.
Alain Ducasse is one of London's top three-Michelin-starred restaurants and attracts a lot of visitors every day.
It usually takes a month to book in advance to get a spot.
With Marotta in touch, it was only natural that Alain Ducasse would be the venue for Tottenham's celebration reception.
It's not just the heat brought by the visit of the Tottenham players, but even the charter fee offered by Marotta is not something that Alain Ducasse can refuse.
The restaurant is decorated with crystal decorations designed by Patrick, which is noble and elegant, and magnificent.
On the red carpet on the ground, even the waiters were asked to wear tuxedos, and the restaurant took this dinner very seriously.
Marotta also wore a tuxedo, walking around the restaurant and chatting with the players.
The reporters wasted a lot of effort and could only take some photos at the hotel.
As for the inside of the restaurant, I can only get some insider information from the waiter in the restaurant tomorrow.
In the cafeteria, the players talked in pairs.
As the big boss walked into the restaurant, the players' faces immediately changed, and they cast respectful glances at Chen Dongcheng.
It's an amazing feeling to watch a star on TV become an employee under your name.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Tottenham's celebration of this year.
I'm Marotta, the president of Tottenham, and this season we have reached a new high and finished second.
This is inseparable from everyone's hard work and the hard work of the coaching staff. ”
Marotta first affirmed everyone present, and then smiled: "Next, is the moment when the boss fulfills his promise." ”
"Kane. ”
Kane stepped out of the crowd, a little anticipation on his young face.
Marotta smiled and pulled out a check from the assistant behind her.
"You've scored 26 goals this season, breaking Tottenham's record for goals scored in a single season and winning the Premier League Golden Boot this season.
To be the first English Golden Boot winner in the 21st century is a team that is proud of you.
Here's your Golden Boot prize money, £1 million.
There is also a goal bonus for the last game, half a million pounds. ”
Kane was a little excited, took the check from Marotta's hand, and kissed his girlfriend.
Unlike everyone's impression that the player's girlfriend is a supermodel or a celebrity, Kane's girlfriend is too ordinary.
Just like the girls everywhere in England, a little chubby and a little freckles on their faces.
Taking the microphone from Marotta, Kane said: "I'm very excited, it's a dream for me to win the Golden Boot this season.
I want to thank my teammates for your silent efforts.
At the same time, I would like to thank my girlfriend for always enlightening me and comforting me when I was at a low point.
Finally, I would like to thank my boss for your generosity!"
The teammates smiled and applauded good-naturedly, and they witnessed how Kane transformed into a British star.
After Kane, one player after another stepped forward to accept the award.
Everyone has a smile on their faces, and when they give a speech, they will mention Chen Dongcheng, the boss.
At the end of the award ceremony, Chen Dongcheng said a few words and announced the official start of the dinner.
The team of chefs who have been ready for a long time will deliver exquisite dishes one after another.
To get three Michelin stars, the quality of the restaurant's dishes is impeccable.
In addition, the visiting people are all stars, and the chef team is even more refined when making it.
The players had a good meal and were taken a group photo with the help of the waiter in the restaurant.
Marotta instructed his assistant and posted it on Tottenham's official website.
At the end of the dinner, the players left the field one after another.
The news about Tottenham Hotspur's split has spread in the circle of British fans one after another.
Some players who are accustomed to showing off on Twitter even publicly posted checks on the Internet with the caption: "I love my Huaxia boss." ”
Some fans opened the photo and saw a cheque for 150,000 pounds.
Crucially, it's just an extra bonus given to the players by the Tottenham boss.
When the reporter got the news that Kane got a prize of 1.5 million pounds, he was even more envious.
Not only were the fans shocked, but even the players of many other teams began to envy them.
Tottenham's treatment, since the change of boss, has improved in a straight line.
None of this matters.
The most pleasing thing for Tottenham fans is that the two signings in the team's previous negotiations have finally been implemented.
Tottenham's official website has released two welcome messages in succession.
Southampton's Virgil van Dijk will be officially joining the squad after a medical in the near future.
Van Dijk's deal was negotiated during the winter transfer period.
However, Southampton refused to release him in the winter, for fear of affecting the team's record.
It dragged on until the summer, and it was completely cut off.
Tottenham directly activated Van Dijk's liquidated damages clause, and £25 million was taken away.
In addition to Van Dijk, another piece of news is about Leicester City, a dark horse team last season.
I don't know which tendon of Leicester City is wrong, and after winning the championship, he wants to sell Kante.
Chelsea were the first to make an offer, followed by Tottenham.
The offer is getting higher and higher, and Leicester City, which was not very firm, suddenly made up its mind to sell Kante at a high price.
Marotta is a well-known old fritter in football circles, and the way to increase the price is not in a hurry.
Always when Chelsea thought they were going to succeed, they added £500,000 lightly.
All the way up to £38 million, Chelsea finally gave up because they weren't sure where Tottenham's limits were.
Truth be told, Marotta herself doesn't know.
Anyway, the boss only said that he would add it casually until the other party couldn't keep up.
Chelsea gave up and Leicester knew no other team could afford to buy N'Golo Kante than Tottenham.
After all, it's just one season, and who knows what N'Golo Kante's level will be like after that.
Buying Kante at this time, the gambling component is very large.
Bringing N'Golo Kante from Leicester City to defeat strong rivals Chelsea.
Tottenham fans, flaunting all over the internet.
Last season's Premier League steal king joined the team, so that the originally somewhat weak midfielder was almost instantly promoted to the top of the Premier League.
Arsenal fans, very greedy.
The boss of Tottenham, the sworn enemy, is too rich to make Abu unable to keep up.
This is really new.
With the signings of Virgil van Dijk and N'Golo Kante, Tottenham have already spent £63 million this summer.
However, Tottenham do not seem to have any intention of stopping.
Marotta continues to make offers to other teams, such as another player from Southampton, which caught his attention.
Tottenham have made an offer for another Southampton player, and Mane is a mystery about his belongings!"
Southampton have always been developing stars and selling them to big clubs.
It's just that they didn't have a chance with Tottenham before, and Tottenham can only look for potential players in other small teams.
They couldn't afford to patronize the business of the black shop Southampton.
When Mane was interviewed by reporters, he was even more confused.
He and Ben don't know when Tottenham became interested in him.
Liverpool has a lot of sincerity towards him, and the matter that is about to settle is stunned by Marotta.
Southampton, with the intention of selling an extra penny, accepted Marotta's offer very happily.
Their meaning is obvious, whoever bids high, Mane is his.
As for the players themselves......
Truth be told, Mane prefers Tottenham.
Because nothing else, Tottenham are known for their generosity this season.
With a new owner, the prize money for the last game is as high as five million pounds.
In the entire Premier League, I don't know how many team owners have such a big deal.
He's just a footballer, of course, which team gives more money and goes.
Don't mention any trident.
When Pochettino contacted him, the conditions were no worse than Klopp's.
As for the salary......
Liverpool only offered Mane a weekly salary of £100,000.
Tottenham Hotspur is very sincere in offering a weekly salary of 120,000 pounds.
If he performs well, you can give him a raise.
Ma Nei kept thinking about it.
First of all, in terms of weekly wages, Liverpool bit 100,000 pounds.
Refusing to add a penny, Tottenham had no suspense to win.
Secondly, the status of the team, he went to the core players of the two coaches' future plans, which is a tie.
Finally, Tottenham were runners-up in the Premier League last season and can play in the Champions League next season.
And what about Liverpool?
Eighth in the Premier League last season, that's all.
Mane thought of this and did not hesitate to contact his agent directly: "I want to go to Tottenham. ”
In the era of Jinyuan football, players have long been not so easy to fool.
Rather than talking about the history of the team, it is better to pay them more wages.
Sadio Mane's intentions have been confirmed, with Southampton eagerly awaiting a new round of offers from Tottenham.
Tottenham did not disappoint them, directly raising the offer to 36 million pounds, completely crushing Liverpool.
Klopp could only watch as Mane, who he almost set up as a core player, was poached by Tottenham for money.
"Let's welcome Sadio Mane from Southampton, who will be signing a five-year contract with the team. ”
The news came out, and Tottenham fans boiled again!
With three players, the total transfer fee has reached 99 million pounds!
Even Tottenham fans in China were stunned by Tottenham's actions.
Tottenham's move to bring in such a large amount of reinforcements usually only appears in the dreams of fans, or in virtual games.
Marotta took a sip of coffee and looked out the window leisurely.
There was a rare good weather in London, which put him in a great mood.
Marotta knew very well that if she wanted to win the Premier League, she would have to fight other direct rivals in the league.
A player like N'Golo Kante who is being targeted by Chelsea must be bought, no matter how expensive it is.
Direct competitors should not be given any opportunity to improve their strength.
Players like Sadio Mane and Virgil van Dijk have been stalked by Tottenham scouts since last season.
The time they drive every day, the speed at which they change girlfriends, and the attitude they get along with their teammates and fans will be recorded in detail.
Finally make a summary and give it to Marotta.
Whether it is worth quoting and how much is the specific price.
Marotta dialed lightly: "Mino, it's me, Marotta." ”
"Giuseppe, long time no see, looking for me to have a business?"
"I'd like to talk to you about Ibrahimovic's salary, what do you think of £200,000?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and after a while, Raiola smiled: "Meet and talk about it, I'm in Manchester." ”
Hanging up, Marotta shook her head.
He had worked with Raiola many times, and he knew each other's temperament too well.
Raiola said he was in Manchester just to put pressure on him.
However, Ibrahimovic is indeed a heavyweight in the transfer market.
Ibrahimovic, a free agent, is the player that any big club can dream of.
Marotta is well aware of Raiola's greed.
So he came up and directly quoted an offer of 200,000 pounds a week, which made Raio think about it in person.
Raiola is indeed running all over the world, and after meeting, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, straight to the point.
Raiola smiled: "Giuseppe, Zlatan is very popular, I went to China not long ago.
That team is willing to pay Zlatan £120 million.
I swear to God, I've never seen such a high salary in my life!"
"That's normal, but are you sure Zlatan will join that team?"
Marotta said with a smile: "I think Zlatan is more eager to continue to prove himself in the Champions League, and we have qualified for the Champions League next season, don't you think it is more attractive for Zlatan?"
Raiola sighed secretly, worthy of an old fox.
"Giuseppe, we've worked together many times, so I'm not going to hide it from you.
Jose Mourinho is very interested in Ibrahimovic, you know how bad their strikers are, they are very hungry for Zlatan. ”
Raiola smiled, her eyes shining.
"Giuseppe, we have been working together for so many years, and in principle I am very willing to continue working with you.
It's just that in terms of weekly salary, I hope you can be a little more sincere. ”
Marotta frowned, he and Raiola were usually pretty good.
As long as it comes to negotiating player salaries, there is always something unpleasant.
However, in a circle, it is inevitable to deal with Raiola.
After a long time, they have become accustomed to each other.
Marotta remembered what Chen Dongcheng had told him before, and said with a smile: "Mino, my boss really wants to see Zlatan show his talent at Tottenham, so this is his offer." ”
Marotta writes down a string of numbers on a blank piece of paper.
Raiola took it and looked at it, looking a little surprised.
"Congratulations, Giuseppe, Zlatan will come over for a medical examination as soon as possible. ”
The numbers on the blank sheet of paper are the high prices that Raiola cannot resist.
As for Manchester United?
Sorry, I'm Raiola only looking at the money.
